Thursday 27th of January 2022 was a historic day for Pierre Tilquin. After all, that day he brewed his first own lambic with the new brewing installation that was installed at Gueuzerie Tilquin (Bierghes).
The plan: (within 3 years) to launch a 100% own Tilquin Old Gueuze on the market. Well done, Pierre! We keep our fingers crossed.

Just before Sinterklaas arrived, we wanted to do something naughty (‘stout’ in Flemish)… So on Friday 3th of December 2021 we went to the Streekproducten Centrum in Halle where we – with respect for the covid-19 measures in force at the time! – tasted 10 (+ 1) different stout beers in the upstairs room.
On Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th of October 2021, the closing weekend of the Month of the Lambiek, we – De Lambikstoempers vzw – in collaboration with Streekproducten Centrum (Halle), organized our 15th edition of the Day(s) of the Old Gueuze.
On the menu: more than 70 different beers of spontaneous fermentation: lambic, Old Gueuze, Old Kriek and various fruit lambics. Firsts and novelties were again trumps! And our tasting board with 5 “new Old Gueuzes” on it was also well received.
The people were present in large numbers, the sun was out… In short: it was again a pleasant affair. And on Sunday, our Golden Lambikstoemper was traditionally awarded, this year to café Paddenbroek from Gooik!
